Managed Firewalls Deployed as part of 4D’s integrated cyber security offerings, vulnerability Industry-leading perimeter scanning is a highly impactful step to minimise your security exposure – at a protection point in time – to help protect your business from attackers looking to exploit vulnerabilities across your digital assets. DDoS Protection Safeguard your network and data Threat Monitoring Business Challenges Proactively minimise overall Scarce resources, limited time and an evolving threat landscape can make threat exposure it difficult for IT teams on the front lines to keep pace with the latest tools, tactics and techiques of cyber criminals. 4D’s Vulnerability Scanning Managed Backups service is a fast and easy way to proactively find and fix vulnerabilities. Last line defence against system failure Vulnerability Scanning vs. Penetration Test – are they the same? A vulnerability scan and penetration testing are often confused, but in fact the two security procedures are quite different: VULNERABILITY SCAN PENETRATION TEST A Vulnerability Scan is a technical security assessment A Penetration Test (Pen Test) is a manual test and using a set of tools to scan your network for known attempts to exploit these vulnerabilities to determine vulnerabilities (e.g. open ports, unpatched security whether unauthorised access or other malicious activity updates, incomplete deployment of security technologies). is possible - an ethical hack.

  • How to Handle Security Flaws in an Open Source Project
    How to Handle Security Flaws in an Open Source Project Jeremy Allison / Google / Samba Team All new products use Open Source • Economics drive this. – Underlying OS is Linux (usually) or FreeBSD. • Unless you employ Linus or other notable names, you don’t have full control over what goes into your product. • You must have a process to coordinate with Open Source upstream developers in order to ship secure products. – At the very least, you need to know about vulnerabilities in the code you’re using, even if you don’t (or can’t) fix it yourself. Dealing with upstream vulnerabilities • Ensure the upstream project takes security seriously. – This is not as common as you might think – do you have a contact point if someone reports a security flaw to you ? – https://www.linuxfoundation.org/blog/2018/04/software-security-is- a-shared-responsibility/ • Even projects that do security well themselves have dependencies. – Know what is going into your storage solution. • If you get this wrong, it can be a disaster. Process, process, process • Put a process in place to handle all security reports uniformly. – Start with an email alias: [email protected] – Can be hard to do with a pure volunteer organization, but without it you’re not professional. • Ability to get Common Vulnerability and Exposure (CVE) number is essential for tracking. – Linux distributions are your friends here, their security Teams can handle this for you. • The process doesn’t have to be perfect, but it does have to be consistent. The reputation game • Use gpg encrypted email to communicate with vulnerability reporters.

  • Common Vulnerability Scoring System V3.0 Examples
    Common Vulnerability Scoring System v3.0 Examples Version 1.5 September 2017 The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an open framework for communicating the characteristics and severity of software vulnerabilities. CVSS consists of three metric groups: Base, Temporal, and Environmental. The Base group represents the intrinsic qualities of a vulnerability, the Temporal group reflects the characteristics of a vulnerability that change over time, and the Environmental group represents the characteristics of a vulnerability that are unique to a user's environment. The Base metrics produce a score ranging from 0.0 to 10.0, which can then be modified by scoring the Temporal and Environmental metrics. A CVSS score is also represented as a vector string, a compressed textual representation of the values used to derive the score. This document provides a collection of examples of vulnerabilities scored using CVSS v3.0. CVSS is owned and managed by FIRST.Org, Inc. (FIRST), a US-based non-profit organization, whose mission is to help computer security incident response teams across the world. FIRST reserves the right to update CVSS and this document periodically at its sole discretion. While FIRST owns all right and interest in CVSS, it licenses it to the public freely for use, subject to the conditions below. Membership in FIRST is not required to use or implement CVSS. FIRST does, however, require that any individual or entity using CVSS give proper attribution, where applicable, that CVSS is owned by FIRST and used by permission. Further, FIRST requires as a condition of use that any individual or entity which publishes scores conforms to the guidelines described in this document and provides both the score and the scoring vector so others can understand how the score was derived.
